Just got a deal on a ruger m77 mark 2 all weather stainless in 300 wsm. I was wondering what you guys use for an accurate factory load?

thanks

as my buddy onfunzr says: this is a reloading website. he'll chew you out for your question. all my factory loads were pretty accurate. the shotter was the problem, consistency was good. now i finally got some empty brass to reload. animal

Try Federal Premium with Barnes TSX's, or Winchester supreme with Accubonds.

I've found both to be very accurate in several bone stock factory rifles. Also, any factory load with Nosler Ballistic Tips are usually pretty accurate.

Good Luck

I load from the Hornady reloading book,not max but close.I've found how deep or shallow I seat the bullet gives me better accuracy..040 off lands and grooves makes my Winchester 70 featherweight shoots just under 1 inch with 180 gr interlocks.Closer spreads the group to 2 inches and at .050 I get 1 1/4 inch groups.Find a powder you like or like me have on hand and load well under max,you can always go up two grs at a time to find the best load for your gun.I load 5 at a time for tests and keep good notes,I give all reloads a lot# so I can go back to notes back to 1969.Drop-Shot

I use 165 gr Hornady InterBonds with RL 19 and WLRM primers with Win brass. The WSMs seem to be more accurate the closer they get to MAX powder charges. Just don't exceed MAX.

I'm getting 3/8" groups with my rifle and have been very impressed with the InterBonds.
